Blackmouth - Marine Area 9 Admiralty Inlet

This weekend we had a couple of good days for chasing blackmouth off the Possession Bar before it closes at the end of the month.  We talked with a number of our customers that made it out over the weekend and everyone had fish.  Not everyone had limits for the boat but at least they had enough action to be satisfied with the fishing.  Most of the keepers that were retained were in the 6 - 8 pound range.  We did talk with a number of fishermen that had released nice low teen wild fish.  It was everything from soup to nuts as far as the tackle that fish were caught on.  The guys fishing flashers with squid, coho flies or small spoons seemed to have lots of action however a lot of it was with small shakers.  Those that fished plugs or larger single spoons seemed to stay away from the smaller fish to a greater extent and also had the larger fish.

We have through this next Friday to fish Area 9 before it closes and after that we will have to be fishing other open areas.
